I'm rather depressed today, perhaps because the future is uncertain and I fear I will not find proper medical care when it's most needed. Last night my stomach turned because my choice was definitely not Obama. But quite frankly, I wasn't 100% sold on Romney. If I had been, you would have seen an excited post about how much I thought he would save our country. I don't know if anyone can save it. Those who don't follow politics at all would think such a statement dramatic and may accuse me of over reacting. The fact is, there are no native born Americans alive who have ever experienced a country NOT free. We take our freedoms for granted... those of us born here have never known oppression and therefore may not recognize it.

I found a blog today that listed out statistics that make me wonder just what on earth people really think. Where do we come up with these stats and just what group of people are being asked? It makes me think all polls are fixed and fraud. I do not agree with these statistics and can't believe that I'm that far off from the norm.

68% reject the notion that the distribution of wealth and income is fair

68% agree that government "must see that no one is without food, clothing, or shelter"

87% agree that "government should spend whatever is necessary to
ensure that all children have really good public schools they can go to"

81% "favor own tax dollars being used to help pay for early childhood education in kindergarden and nursery school"

80% "favor own tax dollars being used to help pay for retraining programs for people whose jobs have been eliminated"

73% agree that "it is the responsibility of the federal government to make sure that all Americans have healthcare coverage"

I wish I knew where these stats really came from... I almost wonder if someone just made them up or only asked specific people or misleading questions. I do not agree that it is my governments responsibility to make sure all Americans have healthcare coverage. The government can't even keep Medicare running properly... I hate to think of a government run healthcare system. The insanity of it overwhelms me. So just what 73% of what 100% of people were asked?

The more the Left points their fingers at the Right, the more I realize just how power hungry and obsessive they are about creating the most exclusive group of specialized egotistical individuals who care nothing for anything other than promoting their own agendas, wealth, and nose in the air. They disgust me!

And of course they blame the Right, the Republicans, the Conservatives, and anyone who might lean in that direction for the latest storm to hit New York. Sandy is the fault of other human beings... namely those mentioned here. As if we, mere humans, could cause nature to do what we want. Nature is not one to take directions or commands. Nature is above us all. To assume that we cause storms that have hit the Earth long before humans ever appeared is egotistical and asinine.

America is one of, if not the biggest Earth friendly countries on the planet... and yet... somehow we are to blame for every horrible even that happens. More specifically, anyone who is not in the Liberal's back pocket.

I will vote against these people in every way possible. No matter how much we give them, they always want more. Their agenda is to take away every freedom we have and then dish out little pieces of 'benefits' to those who praise them and keep them in power. They will, in turn, call these benefits "freedoms" and claim that due to their hard work, they have provided more freedoms than ever before. They will demand great rewards for this hard work and only those who give them the most back rubs will benefit from the most freedoms.

America is the foundation of freedom. If we let them destroy the foundation, they will build their own hell on Earth and call it sweet to the taste. It will eventually only mimic what other failing countries have built and people will wear a physiological ball-and-chain with the literal freedom limitations none of us can comprehend because we have never been without freedom.

My hope is Obama is stopped... and when I say Obama, I mean not only him but all those who thrust him into power. He is the puppet of his party as well as their leader.

May we each take the moment necessary out of this day and anyday we feel the need to remember those who have gone before us in defense of our freedoms. Without them... we would not be "here"... we would be in chains. ~Bug~

The Gadsden Flag - Don't Tread on Me

"She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, & cautioned him against the danger of treading on her."

Things to Ponder

Ronald Reagan - a real hero

In the 80s, I struggled with wanting my father to be there for me, but he really wasn't. I can't tell you how many times I thought of Ronald Reagan as a father figure. I couldn't have told you the first thing about politics... he just seemed the right choice for me. ~bug~
